As shown on [[:File:Predicting-reservoir-system-quality-and-performance fig9-102.png|Figure 2]], mudstones (B) are micro- to mesoporous; packstones (A) are meso- to macroporous. The mudstones have more pores with smaller pore throats than the packstones. This means mudstones have greater pore surface area and higher immobile S<sub>w</sub>. As a consequence, S<sub>w</sub> values for mudstones are higher at any given elevation in the oil column.

[[:file:predicting-reservoir-system-quality-and-performance_fig9-104.png|Figure 3]] is a Buckles plot for the Weyburn well. The hyperbolic curves represent equal values of S<sub>w</sub> × Φ. Points from the same pore type that fall along a hyperbolic curve are at immobile S<sub>w</sub>. Curves with higher values represent higher immobile S<sub>w</sub>.
